This citywide project will retrofit 580 catch basins on arterial streets with connector pipe screens, to prevent transportation- related pollutants from entering the storm drain system. The Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA), in coordination with the County of Orange, has prequalified contractors to purchase and install automatic retractable screens, connector pipe screen full- capture systems, and catch basin inserts under the Environmental Cleanup Program (ECP). Based on cost and experience, staff recommends contracting with United Storm Water, Inc., to construct the proposed improvements. On May 6, 2013, the City Council approved a Funding Resolution (No. 2013 -018) authorizing staff to nominate water quality improvement projects with a transportation pollution nexus for consideration by OCTA for Measure M2 ECP funding. City staff submitted the Arterial Catch Basin CPS Installation Project to OCTA for eligibility review on May 17, 2013. 20B -1
